Tare Zamin Par

I loved the movie. I saw OSO, Sawariya, Chak De, Ajja Nachale, Jab We met and Tare Zamin Par; and TZP takes the crown.

A quick personal review sorted on my liking of the movies:

TZP - Amir has as always chosen a move which has character in it. Lovely movie, highlights a facet of the society that was never pondered upon, very touching and a must watch.

Ajja nachale - I love musicals and a musical without a hero! Well few with the charisma of Madhuri can pull it off. Beautiful songs and a must watch if you want to see Elegance and Beauty.

Jab we met - A cute movie, the typical romantic movie types with the villan and hero and all the drama. It's the usual stuff wrapped in an unusual and pleasing package.

Chak De - Highlights the typical Indian's laziness and self centered nature and indiscipline. How it's overcome by one man's efforts and acheivement etc etc. Ok movie for a watch but seriously makes we want to laugh when I come see the politics and hypocrisy at our offices and educational system and development projects.

Sawariya - Has a cute actor, nice set (which unfortunately never changes all along!) and a strip tease. Watch it once just for fun.

OSO - First half is a spoof of bollywood of 70s and the second half a spoof of a bollywood horror movie. Seriously, I don't like spoofs and this one just refuses to go down my throat. Makes me choke! Glad I didn't see it in the theater paying exorbitant prices!

Monday morning movies!

Today morning my teammate decided to give us her promotion treat. We all headed to the movie Laaga Chunari Mein Daag - Journey Of A Woman. It's AMAZING. Yes, the end was predictable, but then, the acting of Rani and Hema was superb. It brought out the raw emotions so wonderfully. Brilliantly thoughtful with a lovely ending to leave us happy yet thoughtful, of life, of society, relations, and ... of what we consider "values".

It's painful to see on film, the wild hypocritical statements we make as humans - the intelligent beings. And whats worse, is that we condemn the acts seeing them on screen, but continue to be narrow minded in reality.
